Rubio was surprised by the question of the threat to the Baltic States from Russia

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio did not immediately understand what journalists were asking him about, speaking about the "growing threat to the Baltic countries." However, he quickly got his bearings and hastened to assure that the United States was monitoring the situation.

"What causes concern? I mean, you're always afraid of escalation, right? There is always such anxiety," the Secretary of State tried to find the topic. — There are always fears that such things will result in something more, so we are concerned and are monitoring this. Of course, we are working together with our NATO allies in this direction."

After that, he drew attention to the fact that the United States understands the anxiety that these states allegedly feel and is closely monitoring the situation. Rubio also clarified that the United States does not want this situation to turn into a more serious conflict.
